A Democrat.

A real Democrat il q Democrat bout
every thing-about politics, morals, re-
ligion and personal conduct. He car
ries his Democracy into his daily walk,
applies it to the men and women he
meets, and to all the problems, social
and industrial, that he encounters.
A Democrat is against moral legislu-
ton of all kinds, for he thinks it is not
the part of government to make men
good. He remembers that the Master
did not speak to the lawgivers, nor ask
that men should be constrained to do
lis bidding. He himself spake to the
publIcans and sinners, and placed his
lessons upon their hearts and minds.
A Democrat does not think that free
men should be sent to prison upon the
testimony of accomplices and perjurers.
He knows that his own safety aud the
safety of those he loves depend upon
the ancient laws, which receive snch
testimony with suspicion, and reject It
unless it be corfOborated.
A Democrat looks with generous
eyes upon the working people who are
weary and heavy laden, and listen to
their complaints with strong desire
to find way to relieve them. -
A Democrat does not wait to see
what the people favor. He knows
what they ought to favor, and IL they
are following false lights, be tells them
so. confident that at some time they
will return to the stright path.-N. y.

From Maine.

Some years ago my mothers health
began to decline; nervous prostration
ensued. She had no relish for food and
could not sleep, and without strength
of course she could not walk without
experiencing great fatigue. We used
the ordinary remedies, but without any
permanent results. Stimulants would
refresh for the time being, but did not
build up the system. We heard Of
Swift's Specific and its tonic effects.
We secured several packages Of the dry
form-the powdered roots and herbs
and after using some half dozen pack
ages my mother has regained her
health and strength. She is more like
her former self than she has been for
years. She owes her present vigorous
health to Swift's Specific. 1t 10 the
best tonic ever heard of.

lonesome will drop you q line from
here in regard to the weather and
things in general.
| AT this writing it is showing very
| briskly and the indications are, that
before night, snow will cover the
ground to the depth of several inches.
Pedestrians seen on the streets are few,
as very disagreeable breeze accom-

Real estate in Omaha has taken a
great boom the past few weeks which
indicates that the population will be
greatly increased the coming summer.
Having had more time in which to
look around since my last letter, am
still more favorably impressed with
Omaha. A few days since / took
stroll out in West Omaha, and found
it to be the prettiest part of the city.
There are some very fine buildings
here. They have large and elegant

will compare with any city Of it's size,

Col. Frederick T.. Ledergerber, late
Republican candidate for Congress in
the Tenth Missouri District, writes as
follows to the New York Tribune:
During my canvass last fall for Congress 1
noticed that very good cheap lands suitable
for stock raising, farming, fruit, ETC., excel
lently watered, can be bought very cheap.
The same lands situated on the Illinois side
of the river would be worth ten times as
much. Besides this, the mineral wealth Of
the Tenth Congl essional District of Missouri
in iron, lead, granite, tiff, marble, zinc, tin
and sand for glass are very great and just
beginning to be fairly developed. The water
facilities are also great. promised the peo.
pie of this district that would try and c. 4
attention to these advantages, and direct
those seeking locations to good agents SO far
as was able. and am ready to do this to all
who inquire.

months or delay Zebehr was at last able to lay oe-
fore him the scheme he had prepared. tho khedive
confessed that Egypt was not strong enough to toll

conditions might become, and that therefore nc
meant to detain Zebehr at Cairo and leave the
Sondan TO its fate.
What the fate of the Soudan has been 10 known

The main lines Of his own scheme were IN many re-
specu Identical with those upon which Gordon
wished to work, but the difficulties in the way OF
reform we're too many and great to 10 overcome by
q foreigner. Gordon recognized this himself. lie
believed that zebehr was the only man in Egypt
who could do what was wanted. He asked again
and again to have Zebehr associated with him In
responsibility at Khartoum. Zebehr was willing
to 90 and to leave bis family as hostages for his
fair dealing He confident that he would have

he was willing to go up alone 1T his own expense

wrong II was the sequel has shown. The reasons
for the subsequent Imprisonment OF Zebehr at
Gibrala ar have never been made public. Any justif
cation which may exist for the action OF the Gov.
eminent is still unknown, and in the absence OF
such justification Ii can only be with regret that
the public learns tho conditions attached TO the re-
itself, the Government binds down an able man -
the only one, perhaps. IN Egypt who wouid retrieve
